Correction: $6!

Congrats... you found the first thing wrong with this system. People will post stupid shit just to raise the number.


The trick is going to be keeping the totals low. We start with 1k, and get 1 dollar per post; technically you coudl spam, but you'd have to go buck wild to really make a good killing that way. And as Naz has already pointed out, you'd get banned in a hurry.

Hopefully banning loses $!

 

Also, Sporsk eh? With Anihawk's avatar?


It certainly encourages people to be active on the forums. Someone may for example voice their opinion on a topic that they normally wouldn't. This could be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on the user. Still, posts need to have content. If I see a bunch of single line replies to topics popping up on your account without any content then I'm not going to be very lenient. Try to think of something worthwhile to say in order to build your vg$.

You know, if this system were to be updated to account for total posts made thus far, Soriku would be rolling in VG Cash...

It is an interesting idea, though. Reminds me of a forum-centric RPG I saw once, where you could spend virtual cash earned on equipment and such.



Sky Render - Sanity is for the weak.

I hope mods don't start banning people for posting alot. It's already very easy to get banned here. The last thing we need is people getting banned for posting.



¿Can we buy bans/unbans?

¿Should a ban remove money?

¿Can we buy a thread to ban and unban posters?

¿What kind of thing we are going to be able to buy?

Posting a lot would not get you banned.  Posting 5 1 sentence posts in a row would.  There is a difference between spamming and posting a lot.  That difference is content.  Spamming is not allowed.  Posting a lot is.

Use your VG$ wisely. Soon it will be worth more than the American dollar.


Hahahaha cold.  I like it.

If we can do that, I will unban my boy Hus in a heart beat. @Naznatips: Gotcha!

I was talking about our bans, no other people bans...

¿Can we make some sort of home art a sell it?

Special avatars or things like that would be ok, but special themes for our personal page would be great, or special themes for our post (Nothing disturbing or eye hurting)...

It will be interesting to see just how this ends up being used. There are so many possibilities, but I guess we will have to wait to see what they are.

....... Although it won't really matter for me if the only way to earn money is by posting. I've been here for nearly 8 months and am far from even getting close to 1,000 posts.

 

Edit: On a second read of the OP, I see that there will be other ways for me to make money. 



Now, I don't want to complain here, but having just added 2 games and some pictures and videos, I can't help but notice that I didn't get any vg bucks for it. Does that mean that database contributions are outside of the v$ realm?



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.
